Doctor Who: 18 Seconds by katemonkey

18 Seconds (Nine | G | 1,438 words). During the 18 seconds when the ninth Doctor leaves Rose in the pilot episode, he travels. All the scenes are great for showing all the amazing possibilities there are when you have a TARDIS. The scenes connect to each other and the series itself nicely, so that everything comes back around.

Excerpt:
He doesn't care about humanity or Earth all that much, but he keeps on coming back. It might have something to do with one of his previous generations. Or maybe it's the food.

Certainly not the weather. But, then again, he did choose an ice age.

Snow builds up against the TARDIS while he sits in a cave, tracing his fingers over still-tacky paintings of bison and bears and men.
